Well, the S13 has finally given up the ghost. The chassis started to rip apart, beyond what I would be able to fix. I decided it was time to move onto the S14, and let her take over track duties. She'll definitely be a more potent machine in every way. I'm starting the build thread over on NissanRoa...

And this is what I mean by too much front brake bias. My last run of the day, where I was able to get FTD, but unfortunately took out about 6 cones. I went too hot into the finish at the top of second gear. Here is the result. About 200ft off locked front tires. You can see where I pumped the brakes...

Yeah, the car hasn't seen much action over the past 2.5 years while I was busy finishing my bachelors, and working every weekend. Hell, it would go months without even moving. She's still kicking ass though. Thanks

Next up on the chopping block: Z32 Rear Brake Upgrade Adjustable Rear Toe Arms With the Wilwods up front and stock rears, I feel as if I'm having wayyy too much front brake bias. Hopefully, by upgrading to Z32 rears and a good set of pads I'll be able to level it out. I'll be needing adjustable toe...

I usually jack both front sides then the rear by the diff. I'm finally done with school and was able to get a job right before graduation. So now with my weekends free I can finally get back into road racing and auto-x. New tire setup consists of: 235/40 Nitto NT05 Front 255/40 Hankook RS-3 Rear Sti...

As requested, excuse the cell phone pics Nothing special really. Auto, stock motor, some suspension mods to make it a bit more fun around turns. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6016/6009278396_89de8ae68b_z.jpg http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6140/6008729905_b8f877c683_z.jpg Picked this up for a damn g...

I'll get a few more pics of the daily once it stops raining and I can clean it up.

Did this to the daily. 8" 100w, small, light and easily removed if need be. Exactly what I wanted.

Here's a video from the event.

Thanks Tommy 702S13 - It's a Xenon front lip, JDM 180sx Chuki sides, and stock mud flaps......that's it. I'm not a big fan of fiberglass. This car has taken so many cones to the face over the years it's not even funny. It even has a few permanent cone "swipes". The urethane just takes it a...

7/16/11 Another SCCA Drift event under my belt. The car performed well, but keeping the intercooler from heatsoaking was a challenge. The course didn't give much in terms of air flow being mostly second gear stuff. So a drive down the street was needed once or twice throughout the day. Rerouting the...

Does 4th gear even go to 130mph?

I agree with TryingTo Turbo, you should be fine with auto-x. HPDE/Lapping days are much more strenuous on every aspect of a car. Especially a cooling system.

I am the only one who knows how anything works up there. Its sad but, i'm telling u they dont have a clue and only 1 of them speaks decent english.

Anyone find this statement a little disturbing? How does this company function?

My experience has come from drift events, auto-x's, and open lapping days. The most brutal being lapping days. I had the e-fans setup on a two stage fan controller. With both fans on high They would barely be able to keeps temps at 90C with the heater on full blast during a 15 minute lapping session...

Awesome build man. I like you DIY approach. I'm learning to weld as we speak and I plan on doing more of my own fabrication.

What do you use the car for mainly? Streets, auto-x, drag?

Keep it up

My daily driver needed a little TLC, and eventually I can see this taking the place of the track car so I don't mind spending a little money on it. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs941.snc4/73420_462477194704_627789704_5434945_5626476_n.jpg old and busted coming out http://sphotos.ak.fb...

We had another drift event on halloween day. They track we usually go to has come into new ownership and they are willing to work with drifters to make this a regular thing. We had about 12 drivers and would do a 2 loss elimination tournament. Tandem wasn't allowed, well because most drivers do not ...

You do know that your stock fan setup including the clutch fan, shroud, and a/c fan will outflow almost any other setup out there right?

I've been through altima and taurus fans and have come back to the stock setup. It's is far superior in my opinion.

Thanks lonismos14

and street_240sx: Fenders are just rolled front and rear. No pull was necessary

Got sent home from work so I rushed my ass to an auto-x. I haven't been out there in a few months, it felt good.

Yeah, that's happened before. The battery just needed a good charge. It should be all fixed now.

I haven't updated in a while, so here it goes. The mid-mount i/c is done and working great. Seems like I picked up some power and responsiveness. I'll get some pics up soon. Import Face-Off just happened again and of course a few of us were out there drifing. http://www.stuscully.com/Events/2010-Imp...

My car is fast enough for me at 12psi. The only time I need that much power is if I decide to drag race. Everything else I do, auto-x, drifting, 8psi is enough.

Yep, the spool up hasn't changed even though I'm on a forged motor now. I find this turbo comes alive above 10psi. You'll be happy when you up the boost.

Yeah, I went and used Corr's dyno but did the tuning myself.

A video threw together

Enjoy
240's are KA-T

I figure it can't be any worse then having an a/c condensor. The clutch fan pulls plenty of air and I will also have the stock e-fan hooked up to a fan controller. Also if you think about it, it was completely block before with the i/c in the lower opening and the oil cooler in the cut-out in the bu...

Small update: I've always had problems with blowing off intercooler pipes, especially on hi boost. Decided to switch things up a bit. New intercooler, mid mount and is sealed to the radiator so the fans will pull air through. Remounted the oil-cooler today and all that is needed is to put the fan sh...

It's a Xenon Lip, I can't remember the website. Just search NICOclub
